Dismount your Jukebox, set the play mode to random and play the playlist.

On my Jukebox, I have a directory called \01-playlists. The "01" makes it
sort to the top. Inside this directory is a playlist for each band, created
as above but in the band's home directory. There is a playlist for every
genre such as bigband.m3u, rock.m3u, etc. I created these lists by executing
the above command into several files and editing out the bands that didn't
apply. Then there is an "all.m3u" that plays the whole jukebox.

This works great. I rarely venture into the actual music directories.

You can use WinAmp to build playlists but when you want to play a whole
directory or tree, the "dir" method is quicker and easier.
